Baking: Banana Bread in a Flower Pot

This recipe makes 2 very moist loaves of banana bread.

This recipe makes 2 loaves baked in Medium sized Terra Cotta pots sold at Walmart for $1.00 each.
After purchasing the pots, make sure to take off any stickers and wash well. Stuff a small ball of wax paper into the drain hole in the bottom of the pot. I also cut circles of wax paper to fit the bottom of the pots. I greased the pots generously with crisco.
